Astonishment flashed across Zhang Xuan's mind for a brief moment before he came to a realization.
He wasn't Liu Yang!
Rather, it was the newly appointed Otherworldly Demonic Tribe's Sovereign Chen Xiaobei. As elites of mankind, it was understandable that they would attempt to assassinate the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe's Sovereign.
"Good! It's been a long time since we last met, and I want to see how much everyone has improved! "
Zhang Xuan wanted to send a telepathic message to stop the others, but he knew that this was an important moment in the inauguration ceremony. If he were to acknowledge his seniors and juniors, his teacher's plans would be ruined.
At the same time, pride welled up in his heart.
He wanted to see how much his seniors and juniors had improved over the past half a year.
Hong long!
Turning around, Lu Chong sent a powerful punch toward the soul oracles.
The ground caved in as if two worlds had collided with one another. As soon as Lu Chong's soul emerged from the ground, it was smashed back into the ground.
"What a powerful punch!"
Lu Chong narrowed his eyes in astonishment.
He had only felt such a powerful punch from his teacher and Senior Liu Yang before. He did not think that the newly-appointed Sovereign Chen Yong would be capable of such a feat as well.
It was no wonder he was able to subjugate an entire tribe.
After knocking Lu Chong back with a single punch, Liu Yang's aura surged. He stretched out both of his hands to receive Zheng Yang's spear and Zhao Ya's sword.
Liu Yang did not back down in the slightest.
After absorbing Sovereign Chen Yong's strength, Zhang Xuan's cultivation had already reached Ancient Sage 3-dan Blood Reincarnation realm advanced stage, just a step away from reaching Ancient Sage 3-dan pinnacle. While his senior and junior had been improving swiftly over the past few days, they were still lacking compared to him.
Peng peng!
With two deep groans, the two of them were forced to retreat.
Huala!
Seeing that the newly-appointed Sovereign Chen Yong was under attack, the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe soldiers immediately rushed forward.
"Don't make a move without my command!"
Liu Yang harrumphed coldly as he stopped the soldiers who were prepared to join forces to attack Sovereign Chen Yong.
His strength pierced through the air, and Zhao Ya's sword seemed as if it would fly out of her grasp at any moment.
Zhao Ya narrowed her eyes in astonishment. She did not think that the newly-appointed Sovereign Chen Yong would not only be so powerful, but his eye of discernment as well. With a single glance, he was able to see through the flaws in her sword art and attempt to snatch her sword away.
"Open!"
Knowing that their sneak attack would be for naught if they allowed Zhang Xuan to succeed, Zhang Xuan roared.
Rumble!
Her Pure Yin Body was completely unleashed. In an instant, with her as the center, a radius of over a hundred kilometers was covered in frost. White snow fluttered in the air, as if winter had arrived.
Under the immense pressure, her stagnant cultivation also made a breakthrough in the blink of an eye.
Ancient Sage 2-dan, Great Philosopher realm!
Back when she was in the Temple of Confucius, she had already reached Sempiternal realm consummation. On top of that, she had assimilated the Bodhi Fruit and Glacial Crystal that her teacher had bestowed upon her, allowing her cultivation to soar. While she was not able to wield the Hall of Spring and Autumn like Zheng Yang did, her rate of improvement was not too slow either.
If that wasn't the case, Yuan Tao wouldn't have been so fearful after hearing First Senior Sister's shout.
With the breakthrough in her cultivation, Zhao Ya's sharpness grew even stronger. Her battle prowess instantly multiplied. Wave after wave of sword energy shot out like a waterfall, making it impossible for others to escape.
Zheng Yang also rushed forward, his spear stabbing out repeatedly, forming a belt of light that descended from the sky, leaving no space for anyone to dodge.
"This …"
Upon seeing this sight, Zhang Xuan, who had been watching the commotion from the sidelines, frowned. He could not help but feel rage burning in his heart.
It had only been two short months since he last saw those wastrels. Just how far had they progressed in their cultivation?
Not only did they toss all of the trump cards that he had imparted to them into the Jawa Kingdom, they even made up stories that they were not. How embarrassing!
"Heh!"
Zhang Xuan remarked in awe. At the same time, the duo's attacks arrived right before Liu Yang. Both of them raised their palms, and the might of their fists crushed down like a millstone.
Kacha! Kacha!
Zheng Yang and Zhao Ya were forced to retreat once more.
"Senior!"
"Senior!"
Boom!
Unable to hold themselves back any longer, Wang Ying, Wei Ruyan, and Yuan Tao charged forward as well.
Even though he had not reached Ancient Sage yet, after devouring Kong Shi's soul imprint and overcoming the Ancient Sage Ordeal, the toughness of his physical body was comparable to that of an Ancient Sage artifact. Using his body as a weapon, he was able to wield incredible might.
Wei Ruyan executed her Innate Poison Body, and her poison aura surged like a dragon, preventing anyone from getting close. Even the surrounding space began to distort from the poison.
Even though Wang Ying had not used any enchanted artifacts, her fighting prowess had still reached the level of an Ancient Sage. On top of that, she was extremely meticulous in her movements, coordinating with the other seniors and juniors in every single move she made, making it feel as if she was making every single needle in her body. This made Liu Yang the most uncomfortable.
Deng deng deng!
With the six of them working together, Liu Yang was no longer as intimidating as before, and he was forced to retreat.
While his cultivation was much higher than the others, the six of them were his teacher's direct disciples, and they had cultivated the most exquisite battle techniques and profound understanding of cultivation techniques. If he were to use Sovereign Chen Yong's heritage and not the trump cards that his teacher had imparted to him, he might not be a match for them.
However, if he were to use the trump cards that his teacher had imparted to him, as fellow disciples of the same lineage, they would surely be able to recognize him with a single glance.
Peng peng!
With so many thoughts running through his mind, Liu Yang's reflexes were slightly slower than before. As a result, he suffered two consecutive attacks, and he was forced to retreat several steps. A sweet sensation welled up in his throat, and fresh blood seeped down his lips.
He had thought that he would be able to surpass the others after obtaining Sovereign Chen Yong's heritage, but who could have known that they would still be so powerful?
"There's something weird about this Sovereign Chen Yong …"
Under the relentless barrage of attacks, Zhao Ya and the others also noticed that something was amiss.
There was no doubt that the new Sovereign Chen Yong was far stronger than they had thought. But … why did it feel like he was so familiar with their teamwork and moves?
"Regardless of whether there's something weird about him or not, if we don't hurry up, we'll really die here once the other Otherworldly Demons join hands with us!"
Zheng Yang's eyebrows shot up anxiously.
It was no wonder he was able to unite the entire Otherworldly Demonic Tribe. Despite his young age, his fighting prowess was not to be underestimated. They had thought that they were already the top geniuses of the younger generation, but who could have known that the new Sovereign Chen Yong, despite being only slightly older than them, would be able to take on the six of them single-handedly?
Could he really be the disciple of a god?
Otherwise, how could he be so powerful?
Boom boom boom!
The battle between the seven of them caused the air to churn intensely, and the rumbling of thunder echoed nonstop. The faces of the Otherworldly Demons below flushed crimson in agitation.
They had never seen such a chaotic battle between Ancient Sages before.
More importantly, the new Sovereign Chen Yong was actually able to take on the six of them single-handedly!
"Enough!"
Just as everyone was in a state of shock, a deep voice exploded in the air, resounding through the entire Royal City.
Upon hearing that voice, the bodies of Zheng Yang, Zhao Ya, and the others stiffened as they hurriedly backed away.
The new Sovereign Chen Yong was also rooted to the spot.
Boom!
A figure slowly descended from the sky with his hands behind his back.
